Total time: 45 min
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients: 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts; 2 tablespoons olive oil; 3 tablespoons chipotle adobo sauce (from canned chipotles); 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon lime juice; 1 teaspoon ground cumin; 1 teaspoon dried oregano; 2 cups cooked brown or white rice; 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed; 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen); 1 red bell pepper, sliced; 1 avocado, sliced; 1/2 cup cilantro, chopped; 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced; Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Marinate the chicken

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, chipotle adobo sauce, minced garlic, lime juice, cumin, and oregano. Add chicken breasts and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 24 hours for more flavor.
Cook the chicken

Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Let rest for 5 minutes, then dice into bite-sized pieces.
Prepare the vegetables

While the chicken cooks, heat a separate pan over medium heat and sauté the sliced bell peppers for 5-6 minutes until slightly softened. In the same pan, warm the black beans and corn kernels for 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook the rice

If you haven't already prepared the rice, cook according to package instructions. Once cooked, stir in 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice to make cilantro-lime rice.
Assemble the bowls

Divide the cilantro-lime rice among four bowls. Arrange the chicken, black beans, corn, bell peppers, avocado slices, and diced red onion on top of the rice in separate sections.
Garnish and serve

Sprinkle the remaining chopped cilantro over each bowl. Serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top just before eating. Add your favorite hot sauce or salsa if desired.
